The Acting General Secretary for the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), John Boadu has warned that the party will only appoint people who have been schooled with the party’s ideologies and principles from the proposed establishment of the party Training Institute, and no party member will take position in the party and in government ‘by chance’.
He said that will allow members, who aspire to take leadership roles in the party and government, to be inclined with the party’s vision and be in better positions to execute their works in consonance with the party’s traditions that hold it
Addressing some 5,000 delegates at the National Extraordinary Delegates Conference in Kumasi on December 17, 2017, John Boadu said, plans are far advanced for the establishment of the school.
According to him, the rationale for the establishment of the school is to primarily offer leadership training for members of the party, who aspire to take up leadership positions in the party and in government.
Speaking to Otec news on Monday, December 18, 2017, John Boadu said “we have many political parties in the world who have their own institutions and sometimes they run it independently. These institutions have helped them in educating their members on the visions of the party, and you see, the members who attended the schools performed perfectly when appointed to serve either in the party or in government”.
Mr. Boadu explained that the training institute will also identify and groom talents from the educational institutions, imbibe and inculcate in them the core values that underpin the NPP establishment.
“In the short to medium term, appointees of government, officials at the electoral area, polling station level, constituency, regional, and national officers will benefit from the training at the institute,” he added.
He concluded that The Danquah Institute, which has over the years promoting the parties ideologies, supporting it with policy interventions, cutting-edge research, and training for party officials, is well positioned to start this project.
